Slang is something that people come up with themselves. And if you don't communicate in chats and gradually impose a new name on everyone, few people will agree with it and use it. For example, we (a group of my friends who are fans of the game) have our own slang:
Nerd - the Evil Eye unit from the Dungeon faction;
Lumberjack - Minotaur.
Dragon - only the Creature of Darkness in the Dungeon (meaning that a young creature will become a captain, just let it grow up).
Walker - a hero with Logistics as a specialty, +5% per level.
Lichlings - Liches in the Necropolis.
Bones - Skeletons in the Necropolis.
To crap (to poop) - to use the Explosion spell on a unit.
Cloud - Air Elementals in the Conflux.
Ice - Ice Elementals in the Conflux.
Birds - Phoenixes in the Conflux.
Gremlins, grems - Gremlins in the Castle.
Galeta - Stone Golem in the Castle.
Gin and Tonic - Enhanced Djinn in the Castle.
Piglet - Gorgons (they look very much like pigs, I don't know why).
Sow - Mighty Gorgons.

Please tell me, what do IMHO and FLOOD mean in slang, or in general?

Thank you, Night, I finally saw the light.
By the way, what do you all think about calling zombies "zombiks"?
Their damage isn't high, their growth isn't significant, and their speed isn't great; by the time they shamble over, they'll already be taken care of. Therefore, they're a minor and almost useless unit.

In slang terms, I'll say this...
We (just a group of friends - fans of the game - to make it clear to everyone) on birthdays wish each other not just luck and success (that's too basic for us now), but wish each other to become experts in luck and experts in leadership.
If someone loses a match (one-on-one) repeatedly, we jokingly call him a "noob" (from the word "noob") and send him to practice playing Heroes (train) sleepless nights.

I agree, but "Typhoons" are more like storm elementals (arrows).

Little typhoons because the lower part looks like a typhoon...

And we call dendroids "churkas" or "churbans" (wood).

Added 1 minute ago
In other words, "churka" is a basic dendroid,
"churban" is an improved dendroid,
"polennitsa" is a group of dendroids.
